Through this project you will be given the opportunity to learn more about the ways in which indivuduals can make an impact on their community. There are many not-for-profit organizations in your local area that provide a variety of services. Your first task is to research three organizations from one of the categories below. Use the notetaking sheet provided to arganize your findings. Next, choose the one that best matches your interests and tell why it appeals to you. Lastly, develop a short promotion video to encourage others to support your chosen group.
